NFL Week 8 AFC South Power Rankings: Chitlin Losers or Barbeque Winners

The Colts managed a questionable win against the Broncos in week 7, but the final score reflects a most positive possibility that the Colts 5-2 record is no fluke.

The Colts, Titans and Texans rest period comes on a bye-week, and the Titans need to regroup if they are going to get back to 500 in the AFC South. The Texans season is quietly slipping into oblivion and their 2-5 record suggests that their struggles on offense and defense will continue for the remainder of the 2013 season.

Can the Jacksonville Jaguars muster up any fantasy points or real time points in their matchup against a superior San Francisco 49ers team?

Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers are approaching the mid-season in ostentatious fashion, and the 49ers will be deemed Barbecue winners in week 8, unless the Jaguars pull off a miracle win.

The 49ers may post the third most fantasy points in week 8 above all other NFL teams.

NFL Week 8 AFC East Power Rankings: Which Team will be Studs or Duds?

Coach Rex Ryan of the New York Jets has developed a proven formula on how to defeat the New England Patriots this season. Although the Jets are dead even in the win category against the Patriots, their overtime win in week 7 was a feel good moment for a team that desperately needed another win to stay above 500 in the torrid AFC East.

The Jets remain one game behind the Patriots and Rex Ryan is no longer on the hot seat.

As a result of drumming up a winning game plan that overpowered the Patriots in a gritty overtime win, the Jets gain new life going into their week 8 matchup against the Bengals.

Each and every Jets fan would rather forget the 2012 NFL season, recalling when the Jets only won 6 games. Does Gino Smith have enough fire power to compete against a stout Bengals defense, or will Gino Smith and the Jets be a dud going into a week 9 matchup against the New Orleans Saints?

The Patriots receivers are still struggling to find their identity this season and Tom Brady is not having the season he hoped he would have – due to growing pains of Danny Amendola and Aaron Dobson.

Tom Brady faces a “Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” Miami defense. Can Tight End Rob Gronkowski be an effective X-Factor in Tom Brady’s air attack?

Will the Patriots defense be able to keep up with an evolving Miami ground attack?

A struggling Buffalo Bills defense is at a standstill trying to find their identity, this does not fare well as they face the high powered offense of the New Orleans Saints.

Can the Bills cover the point spread as fantasy duds, or will the Saints run up the fantasy point score, 40-0?

Week 3 NFL Hot Quick Pick: Oakland Raiders 19 – Denver Broncos 38

If you are a last minute NFL quick pick fantasy player like I am, then this is a must week 3 quick pick posts that will make many fantasy players proud.

If Peyton Manning stays healthy for the remainder of the 2013 NFL season, he may have the opportunity to break a couple of NFL records that will set a new standard in the NFL.

Many fantasy players know this game is all about what Peyton Manning brings to the Broncos table, and it is an undeniable fact that the acquisition of Manning has given the Broncos the edge in a competitive AFC West Division.

The Raiders defense without Von Miller and Champ Bailey is still clicking on 6 cylinder overdrive. There are two bright spots that many Indianapolis Colts fans remember when Peyton was a Colt; his uncanny knack to tear down a defense, and know when to hand the ball off in key situations of duress.

My prediction is that Wes Welker will have another standout game, and his 2 TD scores will help seal a Bronco victory.

I’m going out on a limb to predict that Peyton Manning will throw 5 TD passes, have 1 INT, complete 32 out of 45 passes, and have a 99.9 QB rating. If Peyton is able to throw 3 TD passes in this game against the Raiders, it will set a new NFL record.

Another key to a victory for the Broncos will fall on the shoulders of their young Tight End Julius Thomas. The Broncos Tight End knows the importance of defeating the Raiders - in a game that means more to the Broncos from a division standing.

Even though the Broncos got off to a sluggish start in the beginning first 3 games, this game will prove to be a work in progress as the Broncos improve on their first half scoring percentage.
